The Current Dilemma
After four consecutive defeats, Pakistan’s journey in the tournament hangs in the balance, contingent upon the results of other teams, primarily Australia. With just four points on the table, Pakistan is left with three more matches against Bangladesh, New Zealand, and England.
A Ray of Hope
Pakistan must not only win these three games but do so convincingly. Simultaneously, they need to pray for some surprising upsets. The clearest path to the semi-finals for Pakistan is for Australia to lose three of their remaining four games, a feat that appears unlikely given their matchups against weaker teams like Afghanistan and Bangladesh.
Additionally, Pakistan would want New Zealand to win three matches, including one against them. If Australia escapes an upset against Bangladesh or Afghanistan but loses to New Zealand, the Net Run Rate (NRR) might come into play.
Key Results for Pakistan
For Pakistan to qualify, the following results can prove instrumental:
New Zealand defeats Australia
Bangladesh defeats Netherlands
India defeats England
Sri Lanka defeats Afghanistan
Pakistan defeats Bangladesh
New Zealand defeats South Africa
India defeats Sri Lanka
Afghanistan defeats Netherlands
Pakistan defeats New Zealand
England defeats Australia
India defeats South Africa
Sri Lanka defeats Bangladesh
Australia defeats Afghanistan
England defeats Netherlands
New Zealand defeats Sri Lanka
South Africa defeats Afghanistan
Bangladesh defeats Australia
Pakistan defeats England
India defeats Netherlands
If these results materialize, India will finish with 18 points, New Zealand with 14, South Africa with 12, and Pakistan with 10, edging out Australia and Sri Lanka, who will each have 8 points. However, if Australia manages to secure a win against Bangladesh, Pakistan and Australia will tie at 10 points each.
The road to the semi-finals for Pakistan is paved with uncertainties and dependencies on multiple outcomes. The team’s fate hinges on a series of twists and turns in the remaining matches. While the scenarios may seem convoluted, Pakistan’s fervent hopes remain alive as they await mid-week clarity. As the World Cup unfolds, the ever-changing landscape of possibilities will continue to shape Pakistan’s journey in the tournament. Amidst this uncertainty, the cricketing world watches with bated breath as Pakistan strives to defy the odds and secure a spot in the semi-finals of the Cricket World Cup 2023.
